IN THE BROOKLYN NAVY YARD. Early History and Record of Its Development. A LARGE AND COSTLY DRY DOCK. The United States Marine Hospital— Studded With Bones—The Labo tory—The American Navy— tertainment of Marines. The Brooklyn Navy Yard. Joseph W. Gavan Drakes' Maga- ine for September: The Brooklyn navy navy yard is o town in itself, and occupies what are now the most fertile plains in the “City of Churches,” front- Ing Flushing avenue, and extending in a curve along the wind labout busin, It has an importance among naval stations such as might be fnfervod from its position at the com- mercial center of the new world, [ts first utilization s a ship-yard dates as far back as 1781, when John Jackson, an amateur shipbuidder, establ 0 dock there and began the con- struction of small first frigate built fated John ond pr ling vessels, t the yard was the Adams, named after the soc- sident, which rendered valuable gervices during the war of 1812-14, Long before that time. howey the at- tention of the government NI to the Wallabout Basin tion for a first-class navy vard. owning to its nearness to Ne thon the Federal capital, and its fine water facil- ities. Negstiations for its purchase were closed on February 7, 1801, and on that date the government bec s a good loca- me the owner of the site for $40,000. The place was then leased until 1824, when Samuel L. Southard, who was secret of the navy under President Monros, made a report suguesting the propriety of a vd in Brooklyn. = Few improve- m were made until the year 1848, when the property boanded on the wae ter side by low water mark, and on the city side by Flushing avenue, wis pur- chased for $285,000. Additons were made from time to time, the last oc- curring in 1867, when the land lying at the foot of Little street was purchased from William Ruggles for $0,000, The official record shows that the ap- prop ations made for the improvement of the yard from 1801 up to a few yoars ago were 811,000,000, At the time of the purchase of those grounds,they wereall,with the exception of the site upon which now stands the admiral’s house, nothing but swamps and morasses. High water then reached as high as the building which is now known as the provision and clothing store. It was in front of this navy yard and along Wallabout Basin that the revolutionary war ships of both coun- tries were moored. Within its walls were interred the patriots who fell vie- tims to British cruel on the prison i The whole ground now by the machine and ship houses was literally studded with graves, the interments being made so carelessly that the bones were often washed out. The site of the present ship house, which formsa subject for llustration, is the spot where tfxu Jer- pey was then anchored. Aslateas the fall of 1878,workmen who were engaged in digging an excavation within a few yards of the ship house dug up two Bkelotons in good preservation, which were afterward reinterred in Fort Greene cemetery by the naval suthorities. The yard is enclosed by a boarded fence some ten feet high, which has a history of its own. During the course of 1ts erection in 1827, the residents of that part of the city adjoining it olaimed that the promoters of this en- terprise encroached on private prop- erty. Bitter and frequent quarrels, and occasional representations to the overnment of the injustice of the fence as it concerned the people, cul- minated in a riot, during the progress of which the services of the marines were called into requisition. Happily polives were lost, and the claims of Uncle Sam were finally recognized. Here, within a short walk of the fer- ‘ries, and on the water front, isa great district which contains the various ma- chine shops required in building and repairing vessels, a large and costly ‘dry dock, huge sheds to cover men-of- war in process of construction, lumber warehouses, costly foundries, several ‘marine railways, barracks, officers’ quarters, and storage for immense quantities of munitions of war. The main entrance is on York street, and directly at the right of the gate- way is located the guard room. A pass signed by the officer of the guard is all that is required to obtain an” entrance; but the visitor is confronted at all times and ces by a marine, and if his oxplanation is not satisfactory,there is very little chance of his going any further. Upon a hill a little to the eastward of the yard is the United States marine hospital, for the care of sick and disabled men., It is a large three story building, with white marble facings, ‘and presents a fine architectural appearance. On the extreme left of the guard room, also on an eminence, is the residence of the ad- miral or commandaut of the yard, and in front of this magnificent building may be always found the guoardian in blue, pacing to and fro between lines of cannon. In the rear of the Marine hospital 1s a small but neatly arranged gra which offers quiet resting place to those who have died in the hospital. The number interred thera cannot be ascortaned; indeed, little or no infor- mation can be obtained there, the offi- cers, with few exceptions, being strangers, or transferred thither for the beuefit of their healt Adjoining the cemetery is a laboratory for the manu- facture of medicines for the nav It 18 the only one of its kind possessed by the government, and isa model of neat- ness and precision as regards its me- hanical and chemical arcangements. actured all the drugs v, and the utmost care is observed in their preparation, only thoroughly expe: employed. 'Ilhc murine acks, which are lo- cated on Flushing avenue, extend from Carlton to Vanderhlt avenues,and with the parade ground, cover an area of six and a half acres, They are dividad into mess, dress and parade rooms, the later being chietly used in rainy or in- ecloment weather, together with an in- struction room for non-commissioned officers, library, equipment rooms, where clothing an naccoutrements are furnished, a bnkefi,llcupinn rooms, ble of accommodating 800 mon, rison ells, guard and bath rooms.

They entartain in lavish style and spend thousands of dollars in this manner Additional appropriations are yearly called for, and the u to which those 1aoneys are converted often form the basis of many bright and interesting newspaper | shs. One of the chief features is the Naval Lyceum, which = was founded in 1888 by the officers of the station. It is a literary institution, having a varied and decidedly interest- ing history of its own. It 1i- bravy of over four thousand volumes, besides a museum wherein are deposited alarge collection of curiositios, and a valuable dinet of coins and minerals, Here may be found paintings and auto- graphs of the sev lents, from Washington down, of the yard Once a week 1 to view the strangers interesting are permit souvenirs, and from e morning until 5 o'clock a steady manily may be obs d way hi T A little to the v stands a small mar ed to the Ui 1t of this building le monument, ercet- memory of cr I'orts on the 3 iber 16, 21 It is half sercencd by tely whose swaying branches sigh in the tumnal zephyrs, Within me's thr of this, on the opposite side, apd rosting on three logs, is the huge iron bow of the robel ram, Mis- sissippi, taken from the vessel aftor her capture. It is a tr ular-shaped plate of iron four inches thick, each side of which measures sixtecn feet and weighs three tons. The fire de¢ two st engines rtment includes nd a complete alarm telographs.

The main chamber of this 206 feet long, 85 feet wide at bottom, ana feet long by 96 twide at the top. Ity dopth is d the walls are made of fine cut granite. The masonry foundations rest upon piles driven forty feet into the carth, the intermediate space being filled to a depth of two feet with a muss of con- crete comvposed of pebbles and broken granite. The dock can bo emptied by stoam pumps in fourand onu-huh hours, the engiues employed have sufficiont power to pump 610,000 gallons of water in two and one-half hours. The en- trance to this dock is closed by u float- ing gate or caisson, sixty-six feet long, sixteen feet wide, and thirty feot deep. It is lowered or raised by admitting tho v: ind pumping it out. The d s built at an expense of nearly $3.000,000. As far back as 1826 the site of the dock was fixed, but the work was not begun until the spring of 1840, At one time, owing to quicksands, it scemed as if the task would not be accomplished, but the difficulties, which seemed about insurmountable, werc overcome. There h been twenty-one com- mandants in_charge of the navy yard they | night they may be seen loitering on the K of a man-of-war, or engaged in card playing or some other amusement. Their dress in summer eonsists of a white linen suit, which must be kept serupulously clenn, and a white shako of soft material, rounded a$ the bottom. They hold their mess on the gun deck, which is well supplied with ta- bles and *hairs. When the gong strikes for dinner the sailors form in liue, and, with bowls in hand, march in single line to the quarters master’s sergeant, who supplies ench with a bottle of lager beer.

Two classes of seamen are practically trained here emch year, after which they are rated seamen gunners. From among the ranks are selected the spec- ialsts of the crew, to care for the new appliances of warfare, such as modern guns with their complicated and gear, rapid fire guns, dynamos for ship lighting, efc.

Fortu- the authorities were notified of the scheme, and it fell through. The marines enlisted for service on shore or on board of ships constitute a sepurate military body, trained to fight as infantry and avtillarymen, for par cipation in naval warfare, Their pr liminary instruction is much the same as that of land force nd they are clothed and fed like soldiers. All en- listed men, except musicians, serving on a first enlistment of five years, are entitled to one dollar a month for the third year, two for the fourth, and three for the fifth year's service, in ad- dition to their regular pay, which addi- tional amounts are reinined until the expiration of service, and paid only upon final settlement and honorable discharge. The wma ence bafore outbre quarte came into exist- establishment of the vegular mavy, and before a single ship was sent to sea. The formation of this body runs back to y and sinee then the corps has been valuable anxiliary in promoting peace and enforcing law and order. About two thousand five hundred men constitute the whole body of the United States marines, and on these devolve the duty of guarding the millions of dollars worth of property in the nav s of this country. Some of them Amevieans, others ave Ger- mans, English and Irish; but. whatever the nationality, the marines are always true examples of Yankee valor and patriotism.

Despite the fact that America produces the most scientific marine architects, and the m killful workmen, in addition to the finest raw materinl for carpentry, ship building, rigging, sail making and naval stores, the American navy is a byword in the moaths of all Luropean nations, and a glance atthe few ships lying horve at anchor will be sufficient to convince the reader of the justice of this reproach.
